Global Software Development

Software companies want to leverage the cost and resource benefits of leveraging global development and testing teams, but then often suffer through the 10 plus hours it takes to distribute large build files and artifacts globally. Team productivity suffers and software releases are delayed as a result. A company like Kofax relies on Panzura’s hybrid cloud storage to cut build transfer times by 95% and simplify IT infrastructure dramatically in the process.

Global Software Development and Testing Workflows are Slow

For many companies that develop and design products, linking global teams together is a frustrating process, so they often operate in silos. It’s common to see:

Build distribution that can take up to 24 hours to complete when data transfers fail

Engineering managers frustrated with reduced productivity caused by the limited number of test cycles that can be completed

Distributed development and QA teams working in silos because they can’t share files easily

IT constantly on the hook to add more storage and bandwidth to speed up build transfers
